mate im with you on the vr6t in a 900kg car, i know all too well what these small cars are like with big power, not on the same scale as this, but my little swift GTI with its 160hp engine is a  real shocker for some big power cars..

love it  :evil:

that vid is even worse, the M5 does not get any further away from the camera car till right at the end where he zooms in a tad.. just looked like some boy racer trying to race big power cars in that vid, and the M5 owner just minding his own  :laugh:

C'mon - this is what you meant.

Why even bother bringing some little ricer tat into this when all you have is a shell and some parts that you probably can't put back together?

I prefer this one of the MK1

Watch the speedo needle, it nearly laps itself  :grin:

No way that it's doing 300km/h! That'd be over 185mph, doesn't look anywhere near that fast when comparing it to the other traffic which i'm guessing will be doing 70-80mph  :undecided:

I don't think a MK1 Golf's aerodynamics would let it get to 185 mph, still looked a whole heap of fun though.
